Just shooting the poop with Lori |
He travels the world on the backs of others Insignificant in his stature and size His journey carries no mission Randomly roaming at the will of his host Sated enough to never question his trek Life is an open adventure without worry If the excitement of his dusty trail dulls Another bus awaits to grant passage With a furry friend to carry him home Ah the wonderful life of a flea |
Somebody told me today that I was a rock star! I managed to correct a simple problem, but this person went out of her way to make me feel extraordinary. Which made me label her something greater than a rock star, she is a queen among people. She in her simple way goes about life lifting up others. She seeks no gain, refuses to clamor about politics, feels hesitant in the spotlight, but completes her tasks with a smile and kind words. She made me feel great but I became enamored of the words she spoke to everyone she encountered. Always they were kind and uplifting. She had a way of turning the lemon-faced complainer into a smiling participant in a glorious day. It is easy to overlook these type of people, but they are the reason we are at times reassured by the goodness that happens in our world. They don't asked to be rewarded for the deeds that they do, but desire an opportunity to lighten the burden of others. I strive to do the same in this universe and call upon my inner goodness to make others feel a bit better. I want to find the same inner peace that this woman has achieved. Some way i need to dispense of my snarkiness with life first, but maybe I can be taught by the likes of her. |
